Poorly written by NFHS (so what else is new), ending the restriction should be in the rule itself rather than a subsequent note.

I don't think it is the intent of the NFHS for it to be a violation if either jumper crosses the division line before the jump ball ends. How many U1's are looking where the jumpers are landing?
